Cruising Europe, Ferrari style...

noquarternoquarterMember
Sorry, couldn't help myself. My friend's friend's Ferrari friends are currently cruising Northern Italy visiting museums and wining and dining. What puzzles me is that even though the trip from Denmark to Italy includes German no-speed-limit-highways, a big plus for any performance car enthusiast, they've chosen to have their cars transported down there, and sit on a plane sipping champagne instead Eeker

One of them is Denmark's foremost Ferrari mechanic, well known in Europe, so it's not as if they would be left stranded easily.

What do you think, wouldn't you have taken the trip through Germany, maybe not at top speed, but finally being able to stretch its legs without risk of losing your license?

In a perfect world you could have your cake and eat it too! I would personally love to take advantage of the opportunity to drive wide open on the autobahn, but on the practical side you have a trip with several friend all in exotic cars and for each car you increase the chance that a high speed foray may result in Murphys law rearing it's ugly head and spoiling the vacation. If one car breaks down or god forbid had an accident on the high speed roads the vacation may be spoiled or in a worst case scenario ruined!! Even though the one participant is a top Ferrari mechanic not all problems can be fixed on the side of the road (that's if the parts and tools are available). So at world everybody would drive their super cars on the autobahn, everyone would arrive at all the stops planned for the trip and all would have nothing but fun. But unfortunately we don't live in a perfect world so it makes sense to forgo the riskier part of the trip to insure that everyone has the best chance of completing the most important parts of the trip together! If some one wants to go on a high speed jaunt after the trip is over I'm sure they can make arrangements to find a way to fit it in. Perhaps a side trip to the Nurburgring
